How we've created an Object data structure inside FileMaker to leverage in-house scripting APIs and provide clean interfaces with RESTful web services without web viewer scraping.
Major topics:
1. Augmenting FileMaker's primitive types with "objects" for extensible scripts & APIs
2. Interfacing to RESTful services without web viewer scraping
Session Outline:
0. Perren: Who is Dr. Bott?
1. Chris: Why property lists instead of XML / JSON?
2. Perren: Why pass state?
3. Chris: How is it extensible and flexible?
4. Perren: How does it work with external RESTful APIs? Use Case: UPS Tracking
5. Chris: How does it work with external RESTful APIs? Use Case: Braintree Payment Systems
6. Perren: Q&A!
